Current Clinical Trials
The Children's Oncology Group (COG) intermediate-risk group assignment criteria are described in Table 7.Table 7. Children's Oncology Group (COG) Neuroblastoma Intermediate-Risk Group Assignment Schema Used for COG-P9641 and COG-A3961 Studiesa

|INPC = International Neuroblastoma Pathologic Classification; INSS = International Neuroblastoma Staging System.
|aThe COG-P9641 and COG-A3961 trials established the current standard of care for neuroblastoma patients in terms of risk group assignment and treatment strategies.
|bDNA Ploidy: DNA Index (DI) > 1 is favorable, DI = 1 is unfavorable; hypodiploid tumors (with DI < 1) will be treated as a tumor with a DI > 1 (DI < 1 [hypodiploid] to be considered favorable ploidy).
|cINSS stage 3 or stage 4 patients with clinical symptoms as listed above receive immediate chemotherapy.
|dINSS stage 4S infants with favorable biology and clinical symptoms are treated with immediate chemotherapy until asymptomatic (2–4 cycles). Clinical symptoms include the following: respiratory distress with or without hepatomegaly or cord compression and neurologic deficit or inferior vena cava compression and renal ischemia; or genitourinary obstruction; or gastrointestinal obstruction and vomiting; or coagulopathy with significant clinical hemorrhage unresponsive to replacement therapy.
(Refer to the Treatment of Stage 4S Neuroblastoma section of this summary for more information about the treatment of stage 4S neuroblastoma.)Standard Treatment Options for Intermediate-Risk Neuroblastoma
Standard treatment options for intermediate-risk neuroblastoma include the following:Surgery and chemotherapy
Patients categorized as intermediate risk have been successfully treated with surgery and four to eight cycles of chemotherapy (carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and etoposide; the cumulative dose of each agent is kept low to minimize permanent injury from the chemotherapy regimen) (COG-A3961). As a rule, patients whose tumors had unfavorable biology received eight cycles of chemotherapy, compared with four cycles for patients whose tumors had favorable biology. The COG-A3961 phase III trial demonstrated that therapy could be significantly reduced for patients with intermediate-risk neuroblastoma while maintaining outstanding survival.[4]
Whether initial chemotherapy is indicated for all intermediate-risk infants with localized neuroblastoma is controversial.
Evidence (surgery and chemotherapy):
- In North America, the COG (COG-A3961) investigated a risk-based neuroblastoma treatment plan that assigned all patients to a low-, intermediate-, or high-risk group based on age, International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) stage, and tumor biology (i.e., MYCN gene amplification, International Neuroblastoma Pathology Classification system, and DNA ploidy). This study investigated an overall reduction in treatment compared with prior treatment plans in patients with unresectable, localized, MYCN-nonamplified tumors. The intermediate-risk group received four to eight cycles of moderate-dose neoadjuvant chemotherapy (carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and etoposide), additional surgery in some instances, and avoided radiation therapy. Of the 464 intermediate-risk tumors (stages 3, 4, and 4S), 69.6% of them had favorable features, defined as hyperdiploidy and favorable histology, and were assigned to receive four cycles of chemotherapy.[4]
- The administration of neoadjuvant chemotherapy facilitated at least a partial resection of 99.6% of the previously unresectable tumors. No significant difference was noted in overall survival (OS) according to the degree of resection (complete vs. incomplete, P = .37).
- Only 2.5% of the 479 patients received local radiation therapy. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) was 88% and OS was 95%.
- The 3-year EFS was 92% for patients with stage 3 disease (n = 269), 90% for patients with stage 4S disease (n = 31), and 81% for patients with stage 4 disease (n = 176) (P < .001 for stages 3 and 4S vs. stage 4); the 3-year OS estimates were 98% for stage 3 disease, 97% for stage 4S disease, and 93% for stage 4 disease (P = .002 for stages 3 and 4S vs. stage 4).
- There was no difference in OS in patients with favorable biologic features between those who received eight cycles of chemotherapy (100%) compared with those who received four cycles (96%).
- There was no unexpected toxicity.
- A German prospective clinical trial enrolled 340 infants aged 1 year or younger whose tumors were stage 1, 2, or 3, histologically verified, and lacked MYCN amplification. Chemotherapy was given at diagnosis to 57 infants with organs threatened by tumor. The tumor was completely resected or nearly so in 190 infants who underwent low-risk surgery. A total of 93 infants whose tumors were not resectable without high-risk surgery, due to age or organ involvement, were observed without chemotherapy.[5]
- Further surgery was avoided in 33 infants and chemotherapy was avoided in 72 infants.
- The 3-year OS rate for the infants who were observed without treatment was 99%. The metastases-free survival rate was 94% for infants with unresected tumors and was not different from infants treated with surgery or chemotherapy (median follow-up, 58 months).
- Forty-four of 93 infants with unresected tumors experienced spontaneous regression (17 were complete regressions) and 39 infants experienced progression.
- The investigators suggested that a wait-and-see strategy is appropriate for infants with localized neuroblastoma because regressions have been observed after the first year of life.
- Moderate-dose chemotherapy has been shown to be effective in the prospective Infant Neuroblastoma European Study (EURO-INF-NB-STUDY-1999-99.1); about one-half of the infants with unresectable, nonmetastatic neuroblastoma and no MYCN amplification underwent a safe surgical resection and avoided long-term adverse effects.[6][Level of evidence: 3iiA]
- The 5-year OS rate was 99% and the EFS rate was 90% (median follow-up, 6 years).
- In this study, infants undergoing surgical resection had a better EFS than those who did not have surgery.
- In two European prospective trials of infants with disseminated neuroblastoma without MYCN gene amplification, infants with INSS stage 3 primary or positive skeletal scintigraphy were not started on chemotherapy unless life-threatening or organ-threatening symptoms developed. Chemotherapy when given consisted of short-dose and standard-dose chemotherapy.[7]
- The OS was 100% in the 41 patients who did not have INSS stage 4S regardless of initial chemotherapy.
- In infants with overt metastases to the skeleton, lung, and central nervous system, the 2-year OS was 96% (n = 45).
- No patients died of surgery-related or chemotherapy-related complications on either protocol.
In cases of abdominal neuroblastoma thought to involve the kidney, nephrectomy is not undertaken before a trial of chemotherapy has been given.[8]Surgery and observation in infants
The need for chemotherapy in all asymptomatic infants with stage 3 or 4 disease is somewhat controversial, as some studies have shown favorable outcomes with surgery and observation as described below.[7]
Evidence (surgery and observation in infants):
- Infants classified as stage 4 (from 4S) due to a primary tumor infiltrating across the midline (INSS 3) or positive bone scintigraphy not associated with changes in the cortical bone documented on plain radiographs and/or computed tomography were reported to have a better outcome compared to other stage 4 infants (EFS, 90% vs. 27%).[9]
- International Society of Paediatric Oncology European Neuroblastoma Group (SIOPEN) conducted a prospective trial of 125 infants (n = 41 with INSS 3 primary tumors or positive scintigraphy) with disseminated neuroblastoma without MYCN amplification to see if these patients could be observed in the absence of symptoms. However, treating physicians did not always follow the wait-and-see strategy.[7]
- There was no significant difference in 2-year OS in patients with unresectable primary tumors and patients with resectable primary tumors (97% vs. 100%) and patients with negative or with positive skeletal scintigraphy without radiologic abnormalities (100% vs. 97%).
- A German prospective clinical trial enrolled 340 infants aged 1 year or younger whose tumors were stage 1, 2, or 3, verified histologically, and lacked MYCN amplification. Of the 190 infants undergoing resection, there were eight infants with stage 3 disease. A total of 93 infants whose tumors were not resectable without high-risk surgery, due to age or organ involvement, were observed without chemotherapy, which included 21 stage 3 patients. Fifty-seven infants, including 41 stage 3 patients, were treated with chemotherapy to control threatening symptoms.[5]
- Three-year OS was excellent for the entire group of infants with unresected tumors (99%), infants receiving chemotherapy (95%), and infants with resected tumors (98%) (P = .45).
Radiation therapy is reserved for patients with the following:
- Symptomatic life-threatening or organ-threatening tumor that does not respond rapidly enough to chemotherapy and/or surgery and/or;
- Progressive disease.

Debate: Were Ferrari right or wrong?
We debate the rights and wrongs of Ferrari's intentional gearbox penalty at the United States Grand Prix.
By Marcus ChhanFollow @@MarcusChhan
Not so fast Ferrari
Marcus Chhan believes Ferrari violated the spirit of Formula One at the United States Grand Prix.
Ferrari were wrong.
The Formula One title race may be heading for a thrilling finale in Brazil because of Sunday's results at the United States Grand Prix, but it does so with embarrassment.
Ferrari's decision to hit their driver Felipe Massa with a self-inflicted gearbox penalty ahead of the race in Austin was controversial - and in my opinion not in the spirit of sport.
After qualifying, Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, who is the only driver left competing with Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel for the title, was supposed to start on the left-hand side of the grid in eighth.
Alonso's team-mate Massa had a slightly better Saturday and was set to start the race in sixth.
By breaking a seal on Massa's gearbox Ferrari purposely activated the standard five-place grid penalty which pushed the Brazilian down to 11th and shifted Alonso up to seventh and, crucially, on to the right-hand side of the grid.
The Ferrari reasoning behind this move was based on data collected throughout the weekend which showed that they could lose up to three places before the first corner if they started on the 'dirty side' or left-hand side of the track because it had less traction.
The strategy worked for Alonso as he was fourth by the first corner before going on to finish the race third - thus doing enough to deny pole-setter Vettel, who ended up finishing second behind McLaren's Lewis Hamilton, the margin in points he needed to sew up a third straight drivers' title.
I've been a casual observer of Formula One since the mid-90s. My first season following the sport was when Damon Hill became champion and since then we can all agree we have seen some worse controversies hit this sport then what happened on Sunday - for example the Renault Crashgate scandal from a few years ago was indeed a darker day than this in the history of Formula One.
However, this in no way justifies what Ferrari did at the United States Grand Prix.
It's wrong because it forced someone else to start from the 'dirty side' of the track. It's wrong because if everyone had adopted Ferrari's attitude on Sunday, we would have had farcical scenes at the start. On a day when Formula One was supposed to put its best foot forward to impress the Americans, imagine the shame if Red Bull had reacted to Ferrari's move by also breaking the seal on the gear-box of Mark Webber (who started third) to push Alonso back onto the 'dirty side' of the track?
I know tinkering with the gear-box was within the regulations but again I'll counter by saying the Ferrari reasoning and intent behind the move goes against what motorsport should be about. If the conditions of the track favour your rival, well that's just too bad. What you do is you suck it up and race even harder and prove to your opponent how much faster (better) you are than him.
What petrol heads don't want to see is what Ferrari did.
Who is to say Alonso, starting on the 'dirty side' of the track, could not have driven out of his skin on Sunday and go on to get the result he needed? Now that would have been a great story and a terrific advertisement for Formula One in a market they are desperate to crack.
Instead, the appeal of the sport in the United States was slightly cheapened.
And to make matters worse, Ferrari are trying to manipulate the situation to try and get credit for being transparent. After the race, Alonso even said he was proud of his team for telling the truth.
What nonsense.
You're not supposed to rob and steal if you see something that you like, but you don't get a medal or a pat on the back for not doing it either.
Ferrari can talk all they want about the strategic success they had at the United States Grand Prix - and no doubt their hard-core fans will be probably feel their team has been clever in doing what they did - but for me it went against what sport is supposed to stand for.
In South East Asia we have seen instances of unsporting behaviour before. The 1998 Tiger Cup (now the Suzuki Cup) was supposed to be the region's premier football tournament but it was ruined by two teams that year who tried to be a little too smart for their own good.
In the group stage of this competition, Thailand and Indonesia met each other with both teams knowing they had done enough to be assured of qualification for the semi-finals. They also knew that the winner of their game would face hosts Vietnam in the semi-finals while the losing team would face a perceived easier opponent in Singapore.
As a result, football witnessed a ludicrous sporting contest where both teams did little to try and score in the first half while in the second half four goals were split between the two teams thanks to some dodgy defending. In stoppage time, an Indonesia defender then deliberately blasted the ball into the back of his net for the own-goal which would hand Thailand the 3-2 win and a supposedly more difficult semi-final with Vietnam while Indonesia got Singapore.
Was it a clever strategic move?
Both Thailand and Indonesia were later punished for "violating the spirit of the game" and Singapore went on to win the competition anyway.
Get off your high horse
Abhishek Mehrotra defends Ferrari's right to do what it felt was necessary at the United States Grand Prix to keep the Formula One title race alive.
Spirit of the sport.
A nebulous concept used by those who have their high horse (fans of irony will appreciate that Ferrari's logo is a horse) on standby at all times, just so that they can get on it whenever the chance arises.
The problem lies not with Ferrari, but with those of us who think both sport and sportsmen should be somehow purer, untouched by the grime that coats the rest of us.
They're not.
If anything, sport should be given more leeway given that the people involved play for far higher stakes under far higher scrutiny than most of us will ever experience. When there's so much to be won and lost, "sporting spirit" is not the first consideration that comes to mind.
Having said that, gamesmanship, which is what Ferrari indulged in, is not a recent concept. In cricket, Douglas Jardine employed the Bodyline as far back as the 1932 Ashes series between England and Australia to curb the incredible run-scoring exploits of Donald Bradman.
That led to a full-fledged diplomatic row of course, but it also led to England retaining the Ashes, with Bradman scoring at a relatively meagre average of 56.57, as opposed to his career average of 99.94.
Most importantly, the tactic was within the rules at the time. And that is the crux of the argument, really. If there are loopholes in the system, they will be taken advantage of - in sport and in life.
Recently, I read an interview on reddit.com, a popular news aggregator site, by Patrick Collins - a footballer who has played for Sheffield Wednesday as well as England youth teams from the Under-17s to the Under 20s.
When asked about the prevalence of diving in the game, he gave a refreshingly honest answer - unlike the moralising that is rife in television studios, newspapers and websites across the world.
"It may sound controversial but sometimes you have to do whatever it takes," he said.
"I would do anything to win a match, and if a player on my team dived to get a penalty and scored to win a final, I would celebrate with them.
"I think it should try and be pushed out of the game but only if referees are stricter on players who are caught diving. If players can get away with something, they will try it."
Does that mean diving is not an unpleasant part of the sport? Of course not, and everything should be done to remove it from the game. But "if players can get away with something, they will try it" says it all.
The onus is on the lawmakers of the game - be it F1, football, cricket or anything else (bodyline was deemed illegal after the infamous '32-33 Ashes) to get rid of the more unsavoury aspects.
And despite popular perception, F1 is a team sport. What Massa did, or rather was Ferrari did to Massa, was to get him to "take one for the team". Is that not a concept as idealised as "spirit of the sport?" How foolish would it have been if the Italian team had not taken advantage of the loophole, and possibly handed the championship to Sebastian Vettel on a platter?
And let's be honest here. If Vettel and Alonso are on the last lap, with both still in the running for the championship - it is going to be edge-of-the-seat action for us spectators.
At that moment, no one, absolutely no one, is going to slump back in his chair, thinking "Oh well, what Ferrari did in Texas was against the spirit of the game. What's the world coming to" before switching off the television and hugging a soft toy for comfort.
So if you have a gripe, direct it towards the authorities. Don't blame a team that was smart, cunning, sly - take your pick - enough to do everything in its power to shorten its odds of winning the championship.

Honeywell 50100 Honeywell True HEPA Air Purifier Details
Temporarily Out Of Stock
Cheap HEPA air filter substitute
The Honeywell 50100 series air filter should be 4 inches high. Honeywell discontinued HEPA air purifier filter model # 20590. The Honeywell brand replacement filter, model HRF-D1, is instead a model that is 3 inches high with a foam gasket to fill the 1 inch gap. That is, I was just sent a filter that is 75% of the height it should be for the Honeywell air purifier model 50100 as originally designed and sold. This is a ripoff. It is a significant reduction in filter size, and an extreme reduction in the quality of the product, and would surely not meet the filtered air standard of the original product. I will return the filters I ordered.
Honeywell Air Purifier
I have had my Honeywell Air Purifier (50100) for many years and cannot express enough, how much I love it. My 'ol girl final bit the dust, (literally) after years of hard work but it was time to replace her. I have since getting my original purifier purchased a couple other different units for our upstairs (not Honeywell), only to be hugely disappointed. How can I tell my Honeywell Air Purifier is doing the job? It feels like I am in the fresh outdoors, in my home AND I can literally SEE how much dust and dirt it has been collecting, when I do my regular maintenance of my unit. When I did the same maintenance on the other units I bought, there was no dust or dirt to clean out because it WASN'T doing it's job. I highly recomment the Honeywell Air Purifier, model 50100 for anyone who wants to breath fresh, healthy air. Five Stars all the way!

Topics: Forrester Research, Forrester Research Inc., iPad, iPad app, m-commerce, mobile app, mobile commerce, tablets
Well you could've knocked me over with a feather.
According to new data from Forrester Research Inc., 39% of tablet owners spend more time using a tablet's web browser than using the various apps they seek out and download. Meanwhile, a mere 16% say they spend more time using apps than the web browser. The rest use the two about evenly.
This data, the first of its kind on tablet use that I've seen since Apple Inc. debuted the game-changing iPad last April, came as a surprise to me. I guess because I'm among the 16%. I probably use apps on my iPad 90% of the time and the web browser 10%. I mean, aren't apps what the iPad is all about? I guess not.
To me, apps—on tablets and smartphones—present a superior experience to the web because they are optimized to make full use of the device for which they are created. The app experience is a visual feast, and highly functional.
Whether its reading the New York Times, following folks on Twitter, buying movie tickets from Fandango or purchasing DVDs on Amazon.com, I'm using the app, not the site. The pages of the New York Times come vividly to life in its iPad app. No need for page refreshes or potentially slow page loads on the Twitter app, as is the case with all apps. And when the Twitter app does lead to a web site, it keeps the web experience within the app and lets you go back into the comfy world of app functionality with just one touch. Fandango's app is filled with stunning posters and videos and is as smooth a ride as you could want. And Amazon makes things big, colorful and easy.
I believe one or two things are happening. First, tablets are really only as old as the iPad, which created the first significant demand for the form factor one year ago this month. Perhaps people have not explored the app stores much yet and instead are falling on the habit of using the Internet. And, second, many people seem to be buying tablets specifically as a replacement tool for Internet browsing when away from a desktop or find it simply more comfortable when on the couch (they sure present a more visually appealing experience than a laptop, and are easier to hold when sitting or reclining). One way or another, it seems the browser is the mode of choice in using the Internet on a tablet, not the app.
The lesson here is a simple one: Even if your customer base seems ripe for an app, you should consider optimizing your web site for use on tablets—namely the iPad for the time being—before you dive too deeply into creating an app. According to Forrester Research and Harris Interactive, 20% of U.S. consumers will own a tablet by 2014. That's a lot of browsing on a lot of tablets.
Regardless of your channel, every online marketer is trying to adapt to mobile right now. This report suggests that creating a mobile/tablet-friendly website may be a better use for budgets than app development. I generally think that working for a better overall mobile experience should be the first priority, but I know several companies that see apps as key engagement strategy versus site optimization. I'll be really interested to see how these numbers change as Android tablets gain more penetration.

Imagine: Minimalist Lego Cartoon CharactersBy Tomas • Mar 22nd, 2012 • Category: Advertising, Latest Posts
German advertising agency Jung von Matt created a wonderful minimalist ad campaign for Lego which not only looks great but also forces us to 'Imagine". It's great not just because of its aesthetics but because it delivers a strong message – LEGO will put your imagination to work. However, copyranter and adland.tv have pointed out that the idea might be a rip-off of a fan-created Lego artwork that appeared earlier than this ad campaign.

I know it is not current, but some of the greatest design I have seen on my travels and or researching on the Internet for London was done by a comany named Templar Downie and promots local historical heros.
The "Local Heroes" campaign devised by Templar Downie extended to Green Park, where the focus was on such UK historical figures as Sir Isaac Newton, Wellington and Queen Victoria.
Really great stuff, visit www.templardownie.com for more information on them.

The Nose
Happy Endings
Published: January 30, 2013
Cops sometimes bring to light conduct the Nose would rather not think about—and after a long absence, we're now returning to contemplate, well, sex acts. Republican Anne Arundel County executive John Leopold's catheter bag, for instance. OK, so there's reason to believe the pol, who's on trial for misconduct in office, improperly used county resources for private or political purposes. But having the cops drain and reattach his catheter bag? We just really didn't want to think about that just now. Fortunately, the sexcapades Leopold's accused of, involving trysts in parked cars, suggest some Bill Clinton moments here and there in Leopold's life, but the lack of details about what actually happened in those cars thankfully means we don't have to swat away the thanks-but-no-thanks visuals conjured by, say, Kenneth Starr's 445-page report to Congress on Clinton's problematic sex life.
Take, for example, some poor galoot named "James." He's just some guy who, tickled by urges aroused by a City Paper ad, went to York Spa in Timonium last year, got a massage, hit the Dunkin' Donuts nearby, and then jumped in a Jimmy's cab to leave. It was James' first time at York Spa, but some cops who'd watched him come and go had suspicions about the place, that maybe it was providing more than what the licensed professionals in the massage industry are trained to give. So they pulled James over in the cab and talked to him.
What James 'fessed up to—that he'd gotten a handjob as part of his massage and had only lasted "a couple minutes" before his masseuse "took a hot towel and wiped the ejaculated sperm off of" him—would've been a nice, quiet secret between him and his so-called masseuse that day, who used the name "Lily." But, thanks to the cops, who filed extensive court papers detailing the York Spa probe, now the rest of us have to think about poor James' premature tendencies. Worse, we have to think about that hot towel.
As the cops built their case against York Spa over the next several months, two other guys who they stopped told essentially the same story of getting "happy endings" there. Come August, a raid was staged on York Spa, resulting in the arrest of a woman from Flushing, N.Y., and the seizure of a bit more than $15,000 in cash. York Spa closed down, James and his ilk presumably have moved on to less stressful venues for finding that kind of release, and City Paper no longer runs York Spa ads—though, like other publications in town, it still runs "nonsexual" massage ads.
It would seem that James (whose full name was not disclosed in court filings) and the other two men interviewed by the police in the York Spa investigation were spared criminal charges. But the woman was not so lucky: She was arrested as a result of the raid. She faces two prostitution counts and one count of practicing massage therapy without a license. If her trial goes on as scheduled, in March, the evidence—much like that in the Leopold case or that contained in the Starr Report—will likely include details the Nose would rather not think about. But such is the nature of police work—the conduct has to be publicly described, so as to be transparently judged. If no one else, at least licensed massage therapists can rest easy that this justice is being done.

Valentine's Day comes with decisions: chocolates, flowers, a romantic dinner or a walk in the park? The Elkins Area Community Theatre (EACT) offers an inexpensive and fun alternative. Spend that special day laughing in The Old Brick Playhouse where EACT is proud to present a comedy this Valentine's Day weekend, starring many local favorite actors and introducing a new director to the company.
"Quiet on the Set," by Terrell Anthony, is a hilarious satire occurring on the set of "Sunset," a long-running soap opera. The characters often have difficulty separating their real lives from those on the show, which makes way for several wry situations.
"Quiet on the Set" features an all-star Elkins cast, including Jeff Barger of Talbott's Frame Shop, Missy Armentrout McCollam and Phil Smith of the Old Brick Playhouse, Brian Schaefer of Frontier Communications and Shannon Harman Kerr. Old Brick apprentice students Jacob Currence and Bradlay Brassfield are assisting with the production.
This performance is directed by Shannon Harman Kerr, who is a member of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society and has worked professionally in theater for over 10 years, most notably with the Children's Theatre Company and Guthrie Theater in Minnesota; the Vermont Stage Company in Vermont; Cleveland Public Theatre in Ohio; and Angelo Civic Theatre in Texas as producing artistic director. She is now making her home in West Virginia.
The performances will take place at the Old Brick Playhouse in Elkins with a 7 p.m. curtain Feb. 14-16. A Sunday 2 p.m. matinee will be on Feb. 18.
For patrons attending the Valentine's Day evening performance, EACT has put together a very special "evening" package, including a 10 percent discount on drinks or appetizers after the show at Beander's, just across the street from OBP.
Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for students and seniors.
Reservations are encouraged; please call OBP at 304-637-9090.
This program is presented with financial assistance through a grant from the West Virginia Division of Culture and History, with approval from the WV Commission on the Arts. Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.

"Dr. Menton presented at Mt. Hood Community College (Oregon), and two evolution profs were firing questions after each of David's 40-minute presentations. When most of the audience had left, one of the students came up and said, referring to the profs, 'Those guys were playing T-ball against the Yankees (Dr. Menton).'
"I love that comment."
—Craig H., Portland, Oregon
NOTE: For those unfamiliar with T-ball, it is a children's
version of
baseball where there is no pitcher; instead, the batter simply hits the ball off a 2-foot high tee—like a long golf tee—so that it is very easy to hit.
By the way, Dr. Menton wants to let AiG supporters know that he has a burden to reach teens and college students with the creation/gospel message. When speaking at a seminar or church, he likes to add on speaking engagements at nearby colleges or high schools, so please think about that possibility when considering this excellent communicator as a speaker in your area (call 1-859-727-2222 ext. 403 for information).
Written numerous articles in technical and scientific journals dealing with bone, wound healing, and the epidermal barrier function and biomechanics of skin.

This new program is dedicated to ensuring that students in foster care are achieving academically through course completion, advancing to the next grade, accruing credits toward graduation, and on a path to post-secondary success. These efforts are being organized by the new State Coordinator for Foster Care Education, who will be leading this work. This position was created in partnership with the Colorado Department of Human Services, Morgridge Family Foundation, and Mile High United Way.
Program Documents
The following documents provide an overview of the program:
- NEW! Foster Care Webinar 101 Recording
- Fact Sheet on Foster Care Education
- Program Flyer
- Program Brochure
- PowerPoint
Sense of Urgency
National research shows that children in foster care are at high-risk of dropping out of school and are unlikely to attend and graduate from college. The rates of suicide, homelessness, unemployment and teen pregnancy are above average for foster care youth and young adults. There is an urgent need for schools, child welfare agencies, communities and families to pull together to provide the opportunities, specialized services and supports that students in foster care need to be successful in school and in life.
The purpose of the Foster Care Education Program is to ensure that students in foster care are successful in school and life. The focus is on course completion, advancing to the next grade, accruing credits toward graduation, and on a path to postsecondary success.
This program is designed to work with schools and districts to increase learning supports, implement effective strategies, and strengthen partnerships with child welfare and community agencies and coordinate educational transition services. It includes collaboration with the courts, state agencies and child advocacy groups. It will take commitment, leadership and coordinated efforts for each student in foster care to have an academic home and be successful in school.
Our Framework for Success:
Laws and Legislation
Guidance on federal and state legislation that defines the rights of students in foster care
- Dedicated Resources
- A State Coordinator for Foster Care Education
- Training and ongoing professional development for Child Welfare Education Liaisons in local education agencies, county caseworkers, (GAL) Guardian ad Litems, court personnel, and judges
- Coordinated Response
- Outreach and public awareness
- School District Pilot Programs to increase supports and coordination of services with county child welfare agencies
- Sharing and tracking data on outcomes
- Addressing the Top Educational Barriers
- Transportation to school and academic enrichment activities
- Transitions due to changes in schools and homes
Transfer of transcripts and student records with each move
- Program Contact
What's New?
In conjunction with the Colorado Department of Human Services, the Colorado Department of Education is working on the following grant collaboration.
Colorado's Education in Foster Care Demonstration Project has been established to build state and local infrastructure to ensure that youth in foster care, ages 10-17, are afforded educational stability and greater opportunity for permanency. Project efforts, occurring between October 2012 and September 2014, will be implemented in Adams and Denver Counties in year one and expanded to up to two additional communities in year two. The overarching goal of the demonstration project is to increase school success and permanency through responsive service delivery and improved, cross-system collaborative infrastructure.
The project recognizes that older youth in foster care are at heightened risk for school failure and for experiencing placement issues. The specific needs to be addressed through the project include:
- School stability issues including: delays in enrollment and loss of educational time due to placement changes; school behavior problems, including untreated behavioral health needs, that result in disciplinary actions; school dropout and failure to pursue post-secondary education or vocational training due to fewer consistent educational supports.
- Risks to permanency in placement due to behavioral health and school related issues
- Past unidentified or untreated trauma that can affect school participation and permanency
- Poor coordination of service efforts due to a lack of collaboration and information sharing among key agency stakeholders

Beretta 92FS Magazine 9mm 10 Rds
I was surprised that this mag is much more tighter than what i thought - i was unable to fully load 10 rounds! The spring feels very very hard to me. I am not sure if it should take some time to break in. I think i need to buy some mag loader.
I recently purchased a used Beretta 92FS, which came with two 10-round magazines. The magazines, some generic brand, caused misfires every 3-4 shots. I purchased this Beretta made magazine and have put 250 rounds through it and NO jams.
